The man from Massachusetts had finally pleaded guilty on Wednesday to mailing threatening letters and white powder to Eric Trump and Donal Trump Jr., and to local law enforcement officials.

According to The Hill, “The Department of Justice (DOJ) announced that Daniel Frisiello, 25, pleaded guilty to 13 counts of mailing a threat to injure, and six counts of false information and hoaxes. He has been under house arrest since he was charged in March, and will be sentenced in January.”

The incident happened n March 2016 when Daniele mailed a letter containing a white powder to Eric Trump stating that if his father did not drop out of the race, the next letter would not be fake, according to DOJ. That wasn’t the only letter Daniel sent. Back in February, he sent another with white powder threatening Donald Trump Jr, criticizing him for being an “awful, awful person.”

Between 2016 and 2018 Daniel has also sent letters to the head of law enforcement agencies in Connecticut and Rhode Island. The U.S. District Court Judge scheduled Daniel’s sentencing for January 16, 2019.
